Darwin Built Empire | EP134 | The White House Podcast LIVE 🏛🔴
Professor Penn argues that the Bible functions as a powerful cultural foundation linking Christ, free will, personal redemption, and America’s republican system. He describes a long-running “nullification project” that replaced Christian responsibility with Darwinism, materialism, and citizens who surrender their sovereignty. Professor contends that guilt surrounding slavery, the Holocaust, and the oppression of women has been weaponized to demoralize men, silence disagreement, and expand centralized government. He portrays Michele Tafoya as the political embodiment of that system, combining minority identity, progressive feminism, and Christian Zionism beneath a Republican label. Tracing Darwin’s ideas through Herbert Spencer and Francis Galton, Professor connects social Darwinism and eugenics to empire, global competition, and the continued portrayal of Russia as the permanent enemy. Finally, he argues that the growing Israel–Turkey confrontation is fundamentally a struggle for energy routes, regional wealth, and control of the post-Iranian Middle East—not merely religion or national security.
